When everyone lowered their heads to look at Tan Mo’s shoe, they all gasped.

Her clean white shoe now had a grey footstep on it.

It wasn’t even a simple step on the toe. It was the whole foot.

If one were to argue that it was on accident, no one would’ve believed them.

There was no way a person could so perfectly step on every inch of a person’s foot by accident and leave such a clear print on it.

“Wow! Is this how Hua University educates its students? It’s already irresponsible for you not to apologize, and now you’re trying to blame someone else? Shame on you!” Wei Haosong scolded.

“Tan Mo was following behind Ms. Hu just now, yet Qu Yuanqi, a man almost twice her size, cut in and pushed her back! How can you bully someone smaller and younger than you? And you, Guo Xiaoyun! You were the one who stepped on Tan Mo’s foot. Do you really think she has the strength to lift you with one foot and throw you to the side? She just pulled her foot back in pain, and you lost your balance! How can you blame Tan Mo for that?” Song Mingqi argued. “I saw everything with my own eyes. Is this how the students from Hua University are? Taking revenge in such a gangster way?

“Yes, Tan Mo did outplay the Department of Chinese Literature and the Department of History in the last two years. And, yes, we managed to secure Zhang Zhipeng for ourselves. But that’s because he agrees with our way of teaching,” Wei Haosong said.” Don’t tell me you two got jealous because of that and wanted revenge for such a minor thing? Even if you want to take revenge, how can you go for such a little lady like Tan Mo? Why don’t you come after me instead?”

The students gasped, not expecting to see such a drama between the two top universities at their school.

They couldn’t believe that the students from the famous Hua University would be so narrow-minded.

Not only did the Hua University lose against Tan Mo in terms of knowledge, but they also lost in terms of moral qualities.

Everyone couldn’t help but turn to look at Zhang Zhipeng.

He was already known way before the graduation exam as a genius from the neighboring high school. Now that he had become the top scorer in liberal arts, he was widely reported by the news agencies and had only gotten him even more famous.

“Zhang Zhipeng, are you going to Beijing University?” someone from the crowd asked.

“Yes.” The top scorer from the neighboring high school nodded. “Tan Mo here is the scriptwriter and consultant for the famous drama, ‘Legend of Wei and Jin.’ I’m planning to apply for the Department of History and learn from her! I’m also in line with the teaching principle that Beijing University has to offer.”

“You!” Guo Xiaoyun was so angry that she couldn’t find any words to refute as she was the one who had almost fell.

Tan Mo didn’t even care to wipe her shoe clean.

“I’m fine. I don’t think Guo Xiaoyun did that on purpose.” Tan Mo faintly smiled but quickly showed a pained expression on her face. It was clear that she was suffering from being hardly stepped on her foot.

The rest of the high school students couldn’t help but think how kind and gentle Tan Mo was compared to the rude students from Hua University.

Even after getting stepped on, she still tried not to blame another person.

“Tan Mo! You! I didn’t do it on purpose!” Guo Xiaoyun argued.

It was evident that Tan Mo put it that way so that the others would think that Guo Xiaoyun did it on purpose.

Tan Mo paused for a second to look at Guo Xiaoyun before lowering her head to look at her dirty shoe. She raised her head back up and paused for another second.

Her face turned red a little, and she nodded. “Yup. I don’t think the students from Hua University would resort to such violence.”

Guo Xiaoyun was already boiling in anger. It would’ve been better if Tan Mo had just kept her mouth shut.

“Don’t you know who Tan Mo is?” The high school students around them began to chit-chat. “She’s the Beijing University legend who got admitted when she was just 15-year-old! She’s only 18 now, you know! She’s as young as us!”

“That’s why she doesn’t look like a college junior!”

“Don’t you think the students from Hua University went a little overboard this time? Aren’t they at least three years older than Tan Mo? How can they bully a girl younger than them?”

Since Tan Mo was the same age as the high school students, it was easy for them to sympathize with her.

The students felt as if they were also the ones who got bullied.

To make matters worse, Tan Mo pretended as if she was wronged by Guo Xiaoyun.

“If you guys can think of that, then why can’t Tan Mo, who is the same age as you guys, think of the same thing too?” Lin Fuxi suddenly asked. No one had known when she appeared among the crowd.

Even though she said it in a low voice, it was still enough for the people around her to hear it.

However, one of the students suddenly said, “Well, Tan Mo is a genius. And geniuses tend to be bad at human interaction.”

“That’s right! Have you ever seen anyone that’s smart and good with human interaction at the same time? Humans aren’t perfect creatures to begin with!”

Lin Fuxi couldn’t believe her ears.

Before Tan Mo could even explain for herself, the crowd had already done that for her.

“Tan Mo? Where are you?” Ms. Hu suddenly asked.

The students quickly made out a path for Tan Mo to pass through.

“Let’s go,” Song Mingqi said.

This time, he and Wei Haosong both protected Tan Mo as they walked toward the classroom to prevent the students from Hua University from doing something again.

Lin Fuxi slowly crept out of the crowd and followed her university mates.

Ms. Hu came out of the classroom and asked, “Where were you? When I got to the classroom, I noticed none of you came in with me.”

“We were following you until Qu Yuanqi and Guo Xiaoyun pushed Tan Mo out of the way,” Wei Haosong said without holding anything back.

Ms. Hu turned to glare at Qu Yuanqi and Guo Xiaoyun and scoffed, “Wow! The students from Hua University sure are thugs.”

As for Mr. Gu, he was enjoying the scene of the students from Beijing University being humiliated inside the classroom and didn’t know what was happening.

There was no one to back Qu Yuanqi and Guo Xiaoyun up when they desperately needed help.

Throughout the whole incident, Zhang Zhipeng witnessed everything.

When the lecturer from Beijing University noticed that her students did not catch up with her, she immediately ran back out to look for them.

As for Mr. Gu from Hua University, he didn’t even notice that his students weren’t by his side.

It only steeled Zhang Zhipeng’s conviction to apply to Beijing University to further his studies.

“Come on, let’s head in.” This time, Ms. Hu took on the role of protecting Tan Mo until they were inside the classroom.

When Mr. Zhu noticed Tan Mo coming in, he immediately let out a sigh of relief. “Tan Mo, you’re finally here.”

“How’s the competition going?” Tan Mo asked.

Before Mr. Zhu could even reply, a female student from Hua University scoffed, “Chi Xuanzi, if you can’t answer the question, then you can just ask Du Zeyang to help you. It should be solvable if you work together.”

The male student next to her nodded. “If you can’t do it, then just give up. Do you expect us to wait here all day until you solve the question? Don’t waste our time!”

“Isn’t Chi Xuanzi solving the algorithm?” Tan Mo suddenly asked loudly. “What do you mean by she can’t solve it? Isn’t she doing it? As for you two, what’s with all the provocations? Could it be that you guys are doing it on purpose to interrupt Chi Xuanzi? Do you think anyone could solve a problem in such a noisy environment?”
